The AztecMonster is the first one mentioned by Ronivon, and I would feel better ordering from an e-Bay store than trying to figure out their Japanese website :) They also have the SD version but it is $50 more.

When I worked at Microware (well, RadiSys in its final years), a coworker of mine in the Germany office had been using converters like this for SCSI-based OS-9 systems. At the time, CompactFlash was still found in stores. After I read that no USB->SCSI adapters were being made (Wikipedia’s SCSI entry even notes this), I did not expect anyone had done SD adapters. I am glad they do. I haven’t seen a CompactFlash on a store shelf in years so I expect its days are numbered (assuming anyone still makes them?). I just don’t want to add something to my MM/1 which, in five years, I can’t get media for. :)
